First of all, I think you should create the label in designer and load the layout (for example "Layout1") when the Activity is created. You got error most likely because of this (view has not yet been declared). Secondly, you should initialize the PhoneEvents, giving it a special event name, in the attached demo I gave it a name "PhoneEvents".
Attached is a working demo, please refer to this. I would suggest you read the B4A Beginner Guide and Code Snippet document.
